1168: Chapter 1168: Disguise a Bit (1) 1168: Chapter 1168: Disguise a Bit (1) Lin Xiwang tried to dodge the otherâs hand, but was unable to move, only glowering more fiercely at him.
However, Uncle Jiu still smiled merrily.
At this moment, several people came over, each taking one and heading out, but two of them lifted Lin Xiwang up.
A flash of panic crossed Lin Xiwangâs eyes, but it quickly calmed down.
He believed that Sister Xin would save him.
Yang Ruxin and Gu Qingheng had already arrived at the courtyard, hiding on the rooftop facing the door, watching as people were led out and separated.
âIâll rescue Xiwang, and you all go save the other childrenâŠâ Yang Ruxin glanced at Gu Qingheng.
âIâm coming with youâŠ,â Gu Qingheng would never let Yang Ruxin venture alone, naturally wanting to accompany her, âYou all go find the other children.â
Yang Ruxin could only caution everyone to be careful and to disguise themselves before letting Xiaolun follow Du Man, while she took Xiaoyin with her.
These two little things were fast.
In a crucial moment, they could save lives.
Lin Xiwang was taken to Xikua Academy.
Yang Ruxin produced two black hoods and two black cloaks, âWe have to disguise ourselvesâŠâ
When the two of them, donning black hoods and draped in black cloaks, leaped into the courtyard, they discovered that the courtyard was not only guarded by people but also contained two fierce beasts.
When Yang Ruxin got a clear view, she took in a sharp breath of air.
There were actually two leopards here?
However, although the creatures hadnât detected the scent of strangers, they did sense Xiaoyinâs presence and became agitated.
âWhatâs happening?â One of the guards asked the other in confusion.
âDonât know.
Why are these two critters acting like they havenât been fed tonight?â The other guard puzzledly watched the two leopards in the cage.
âThey indeed havenât been fedâŠâ The first guard chuckled, âHow would they guard the place if they were well-fed?â
âThen just let them get a full meal for onceâŠâ Suddenly, a cheerful voice came from behind.
The two guards were startled, âWhoâs that?â But as soon as they turned around, their throats were slit, and they died with their eyes wide open.
However, Gu Qingheng had covered Yang Ruxinâs eyes the moment he acted.
âSooner or later we must face it.
Iâm not afraid,â Yang Ruxin pulled down Gu Qinghengâs hand, âI just believe that life is precious and should not be harmed lightly.
But these peopleâŠ
they deserve to die.â
Gu Qingheng kissed her forehead softly, then released his hold, casually hurling the two dead men into the cage, where the unfed beasts immediately began tearing at the corpses.
Yang Ruxin and Gu Qingheng continued to walk deeper into the academy, with Xiaoyin leading the way, silencing the guards one by one without any noise.
In the main house of Xikua Academy, Lin Xiwangâs hands and feet had been unbound, but with a cloth stuffed in his mouth, he still couldnât speak.
Although he could move, he was desperately struggling to no avail, as two people firmly held him down, rendering his efforts futile.
âDonât be anxious,â a scrawny man with a goatee, wearing a Taoist robe and holding a horsetail whisk began to inspect some herbs.
Seeing Lin Xiwang struggling, he looked back at him and said, âIt will be over soon.â He then signaled to a servant to pour hot water from the stove into the large wooden tub in the middle of the room, while he continued to add herbs, powders, or potions to it.
